Description
Adult Torso for X-Ray CT, MRI
Product Description
Designed based on average human anatomy, the Adult Torso phantom is constructed with realistic bone and soft tissue-mimicking materials suitable for X-Ray/CT and MRI applications. It serves as an essential tool for medical imaging research, radiology training, and equipment calibration. The skeleton features individually cast bones with vertebrae that have a realistic three-layered structure and inner porosity.
For MRI applications, the tissues provide realistic T2 relaxation time values, making it an ideal fit for T2-weighted and proton-density imaging methods. T1-weighted methods are possible, with values typically within the 100 ms range. The lungs can be customized to simulate various pathologies, such as mucus, lesions, or typical infections, making it a viable simulator for COVID-19-related diagnostic training.
Note: By default, the phantom comes in a translucent amber appearance. The skin feature and customization in size and shape (based on individual CT scans) are available upon request.
